The winner of Dillian Whyte vs Derek Chisora would be perfect.

I've heard that Miller and Parker have turned down offers, Povetkin and Ortiz seem to be the front runners.

I think that Ortiz is probably the worst match up for Usyk. He is the only HW that can anywhere near rival his boxing ability. I would like him to fight Miller just because the size difference would be funny, but he probably needs a tune up at HW before he jumps that much weight.
I can understand Miller looking elsewhere, as he is on the verge of a title shot. If it's true Parker turned down an offer, I guess that can considered a duck.
Either Ortiz or Povetkin would be massive first fights in the division for Usyk. I hope he does end up fighting a top 10 rated guy tho.

Parker’s mob have denied that there’s been any contact from Usyk’s team. Not seen anything from Miller but you could probably guess what his response would be. If I was either, especially Miller who’s probably the closer of the two to a shot, I wouldn’t entertain the idea either.
If Usyk goes in with Ortiz or Povetkin that will be a ridiculously high standard to kick off his heavyweight assault. They might both be sprinkled with old age, but they both combine the kind of size skill and punch power that you would assume could wait for a fight or two whilst Usyk bounces his punches off of a big static target to get a feel for things.

he should debut as a heavyweight with a sure win and then move up in caliber -- and that means the winner of the January 18 fight between Bryant Jennings (24-2) and Oscar Rivas (25-0) more than it does Alexander Povetkin or Luis Ortiz.
